I started out by die cutting my main panel using the Lawn Fawn Outside-In Stitched Rectangle Stackables dies. I then blended on some mustard seed distress ink and then using the new MFT Plentiful Petals stamp set from the All Smiles Card Kit I stamped the daisy flowers from the set randomly in yellow ink, stamping off some of the flowers before stamping on my panel. Next I stamped the two fairy images and three of the little bees and colored them using Copic markers then die cut them out. I laid out my images and then stamped the bee lines and then adhered all of my images, using foam tape for the fairies. I stamped my sentiment onto a die cut Stitched Sentiment Stripsand added that along the bottom right of my card. As a final touch, I added some Wink of Stella glitter pen to the fairies and bees and someIcicle Stickles glitter to the wings on the fairies.

Hello there! It's time for this week's Color Throwdown Challenge and we have some fun pastel party colors to create with. For this week's challenge, I made two cards using the sweet Avery Elle stamp set Skating By and the coordinating Skating By dies.

Both cards have the same layouts and supplies, I just switched up the Copic marker coloring on each one. I started out with a white card base, then added a pretty in pink cardstock panel that I die cut using the Lawn Fawn Outside-In Stitched Rectangle Stackables die. Next I die cut two rectangle watercolor paper pieces using the same die as my pink panel and watercolored in aqua blue and pink on both. Once my watercolor pieces were dry, I lined them up in my Misti tool and stamped my sentiment. After that I stamped two of the skater girl images and the balloons onto white cardstock and colored them using Copic markers then die cut them out using the coordinating dies. I adhered my rectangle watercolored panels with foam tape and also adhered my images with foam tape other than the third balloon on my first card. I added three iridescent sequins on each card and used my Wink of Stella glitter pen to added glitter to the bow, dress, socks and skates on both images. These cards were so fun to make, I love how girly they are with the pinks, purple and aqua colors from this week's CTD challenge.

I recently ordered and received the new My Favorite Things All Smiles Card Kit and I was excited to ink it up and create a card using it. So I used this week's CTD colors along with the color black as a neutral and created my first All Smiles card. I used a white card base, then a panel of kraft cardstock with a strip of simply chartreuse along the bottom. Next I die cut a black frame using the Single Stitched Line Rectangle Frames and die cut two Smiles one in black and one in white and glued them together slightly off so that the black would act as a shadow. After that, I used white embossing powderand heat embossed my three main flowers on kraft cardstock then stamped the centers in black ink. I stamped the leaves in black ink and did some line work on them using a white gel pen and also added some white pen detail on the centers of the flowers. I stamped and die cut two green flowers and stamped the centers black and added all of my flowers and leaves to my card front, popping up the largest flower with foam tape, and then glued on my die cut Smile. I stamped the other half of my sentiment inside the card. Now that I look at this card I think I'll go back and add a few black rhinestones or enamel dots.
